Description

We dissect the covert operational logistics of planting a body rigged with fabricated, top-secret invasion blueprints off the coast of neutral Spain. Learn how the calculation paid off, successfully forcing Adolf Hitler to redeploy massive divisions of German troops to Greece based entirely on a ghost.
